"Mom, I need your help. Please call--" That's it. The call cuts
off in midsentence. No static. Nothing. Just an overwhelming
silence.

Long Island single mom Jane Hartley is frantic when her
sixteen-year-old daughter, Kelly, a survivor of childhood leukemia,
disappears from her bedroom one night. To Jane's frustration, the
police believe that Kelly ran off willingly with her boyfriend,
Seth. Unaware that her daughter even had a boyfriend, Jane soon
discovers that Seth is no boy. He is an adult--a man who, after
meeting Kelly on the Internet, took the teenager on one
thrill-seeking ride after another. From motorcycles to skydiving,
Jane's little girl has been hiding some dangerous secrets.

Like mother, like daughter.

Adamant that Kelly is not a runaway but, rather, is being held
against her will, Jane hires ex-FBI agent Randall Shane to follow
the trail of her missing child. But every step brings them closer
to a cold-blooded predator lurking in the shadows...coiled around
Jane's shameful secret...waiting to strike.
